ANDY MORRELL'S Sky Blue dream could be over after he was made available on a free transfer this summer.

But the versatile striker has been told he is more than welcome to stay on at the Ricoh Arena if he fails to find another club.

"Andy is a top quality professional who has played his hardest wherever we have put him in," said manager Micky Adams.

"But he sees his future as a centre-forward and if we disagree on anything it is that because I see him as playing elsewhere.

"He has not played that many games this season and it is unfair to him to hold him back if he wants to have a look around and find himself another club.

"But if Andy is still here on the first day of pre-season training, I certainly won't be upset because he is a great lad to have in the squad."

Morrell joined City in 2003 after scoring 35 goals to help League Two Wrexham to promotion, and it was a home coming for the Leicestershire lad who started his career as a youth team player with Nuneaton Borough.

However, it is a different story for Ady Williams and Clayton Ince who Adams clearly sees as surplus to requirement.

"Ady is another first class pro who has done a terrific job for us while he has been here, and I thank him for that," said Adams.

"But he is 34 and I want to reduce the age of my squad by bringing in some younger centre-backs. He has played as well as he can when he has been in the team but he is not part of my long term plans."

Goalkeeper Ince, who is away on World Cup duty with Trinidad and Tobago, has failed to impress since his move from Crewe Alexandra last summer.

"I don't see Clayton as my No.1 choice and he wants to leave," revealed Adams, who is still waiting on news on Marton Fulop but may be forced to look elsewhere with Premiership Wigan believed to be keen on the Tottenham player's services.

"I have got my eye on a few players, so getting goalkeepers is not going to be a problem," he said reassuringly.

"Obviously we would like to keep Marton but if not then we have got other irons in the fire." ..SUPL:
